No One Showed Up for the Florida Panthers Game Last Night

The Florida Panthers apparently are a thing. And last night they had themselves an honest-to-goodness NHL hockey match at the BB&T Center in Broward. Unfortunately, not many people were aware of it because, according to the official tally, only 7,311 people showed up to the game.

So maybe it's because no one knew about it.

Or maybe it's because no one cares.

The previous lowest attendance for an NHL game was 10,063 in 2007 -- also set by the Panthers. So the Cats have made history. Twice. For the worst possible thing.

Attendance was so bad, we only managed to find a couple of tweets from people who actually attended the game.

For the record, the BB&T Center holds about 17,040. Yet even with the Panthers having an aggressive offseason that included getting free agents Willie Mitchell and Dave Bolland on to the team, people just aren't responding.

The main issue is that people just don't give a crap. South Florida is already known for being fickle with its sports teams. Yet here you have a sport that no one in South Florida really cares about. It's ice hockey. Might as well just have boxing kangaroos at the BB&T Center at this point.
